making my son's birthday invites, but I am very pleased how they turned out!
Here is the pile of Edwin's and Tilda's that I colored with Copics and hand cut. I made 20 in all - boy was my hand tired after I finished these! I just got these new stamps from Magnolia-licious last week!
Here is the invite for the boys in his class:
I printed the invite on Vintage Cream, cut notches around the edges and inked it with tea dye distress ink as well as some Basic Black. The "x" stamp is from a SU set. I got my inspiration for this invite from the current Magnolia Ink Magazine. We have this awesome Pirate Ship park in our neighborhood, so it is a perfect setting. Needless to say, Carson is very excited! :)
Here is the version for the girls in my son's class.Thanks for stopping by! ~Tori

This is so adorable. I can't imagine cutting out all those pirates. The children are going to love those invites. What a lovely Mother you are. I think Carson is one lucky little boy. It couldn't be better for you having a pirate theme park near by.

ReplyDeleteI take my hat off to you! You are a super mom to have stamped, colored and cut out these 20 images and on top of that, look at that wonderful invitation you have made for you son.
